Simon Green
| Full name | Simon Green |
|---|---|
| Pronouns | he/him |
| Species | Human |
| Role / occupation | Lawyer |
A lawyer hired by Zet in Chapter 6 to legally extract Vanessa Canly from unlawful detention at Bal Hensy's property.
Physical Appearance
Dresses conspicuously for the profession: tan suit, and carries a briefcase containing actual paper — a detail noted as still common among lawyers on Lukyr.
Personality
Simon holds a genuine, unironic belief in the rule of law and Lukyr's legal foundations. He is confident in formal confrontations but becomes flustered when events fall outside legal frameworks. After being knocked unconscious and extracted from the scene, he delivered a lengthy monologue asserting his rights had been violated and his intention to sue — undeterred by the revelation that the guards' employer was a politician.
Background
Works in a generic legal field. Zet describes him as cheap and suited to a straightforward case. He has no apparent awareness of who actually hired him beyond the immediate engagement.
Relationships
- Zet — Hired Simon for the extraction; Zet lacks a legal identity and physical form, making external legal representation necessary.
- Vanessa Canly — His client in the Chapter 6 operation, extracted from Bal Hensy's property.
- Jake Fynt — Extracted Simon from the property following the guards' assault; dropped Simon at his office afterward.
Story Arc
Zet engaged Simon to legally demand Vanessa's release from detention at Bal Hensy's property. Simon arrived confidently and confronted the two armed guards, arguing that Vanessa had not committed a crime and that private security has no right to detain citizens. The guards were briefly uncertain before knocking both him and Vanessa unconscious.
Jake Fynt and Vanessa extracted Simon from the property. He regained consciousness during the van escape and delivered an extended monologue asserting his rights had been violated, that Lukyr's legal foundations carry real weight, and that he intended to sue the guards and their employer. When Jake informed him their employer was a politician, Simon said he didn't care. Jake dropped him at his office first.
Open Questions
- Will Simon actually pursue legal action against Hensy's guards?
- Does he know anything about who actually hired him — specifically, Zet's nature?
- Could he become a recurring ally or liability?
